who is picking up the bear poop:grumpy:

The heck with banning political posts, I think they should ban dog poop threads!

Only three small Villages dog parks for 100,000 residents plus their mutts (two allowed per household). Of course there's a problem.

Seems heavy handed just so people can socialize at the mail center without smelling something bad. Garbage stinks. If someone put some food into the garbage cans at the mail center, it would start to stink in the heat after several hours.

People should pick up the poop but have a reasonable place to put it like a trash receptacle.

NYC boroughs see 145,000 tons of dog poop per year. Most of this is thrown into city trash cans. I wonder what happens to the poop in NYC, when they take away the trash cans??

How about those who wear shoes in their homes?? They step in everything imaginable, poop, spit, blood, urine from public bathrooms and every other gross thing out there. Then they wear their shoes on their carpet and tile. Yuck?

We need a Patty post.

Don't have a dog, go to the mail station but, don't urinate on the bushes!

Made my day!
 

:1rotfl:

Why? Just take it home.................

We need more dog owners like you.

Quality?

Now that is indeed a challenging problem. I am not sure how to solve that issue. We could learn to fly?

Or are all of us getting old and silly?

Lots of back yards!

I agree!

It is not anyones job to help you walk your dog and then ask everyone else to pay for supplies and endure the stink. I am a true dog lover, heres how I treat my good friend. I walk her on my property, I pick up, then I put her in my golf cart and take her to our favorite spot where she can run and get all the exercise she needs. She knows if she does her business, then its time to go play. Because I love that dog, I do my best to see that she is not a problem for others. Maybe that is why so many of our neighbors stop at our driveway just to play with her. Good dog, no problem.

I agree! That's a great post!:thumbup:

Speaking as the self-appointed President of the Puppy Defense League (hereafter referred to as the PDL) I disagree that there should be puppy-poop-containers at the mail centers.

Ever walk by the Puppy-poop-containers at the dog park? They reek, they create a fly problem, they are just gross.

I personally don't like to walk my little PUMP-KIN in areas where other dogs poop and pee. Grant it, most of the dogs around here look pretty healthy, but you never know.

Be civilized, take your poop home with you, or do the smart thing, let them go on your neighbors lawn when nobody is looking. DUH, how hard is this to figure out.

Bogie, dogs need lots of exercise. They get dizzy running in circles in the back yard. That's why people walk their dogs to pick up the mail.

My only point was that I feel there would be less complaints about dogs if there were more dog parks provided by The Villages. But I personally don't have a problem, I just pay to take my dogs to a private dog park.
